Chris makes the valid point that Behringer gear has no "soul". I'd
have
to
agree. It makes me wish I could afford to buy gear made by people who
care
about what they're making.

Don't blame Behringer for this. The idea originated with Henry Ford
who built the whole "factory town" concept up.

I do agree that mass production produces gear without soul, because it
produces gear that is intended to be everything to everybody in order
to
increase the total market as much as possible and therefore bring the
per
unit cost down as much as possible. But that's life.

I think you're being too philosophical about this. The management simply
defined a set of design parameters/goals that we don't sympathize with.

If Behringher used good opamps, good A/D's, and good switches, would we
be
having this discussion? I doubt it.


If you'd ever tried a DEQ2496 you might not even talk to youself like
that.

I'm prejudiced, Hank. I don't need to eat every piece of cat**** to find out
it's not chocolate


The point is that it is not cat**** AT ALL, but a fine little piece of
kit. Maybe the best EQ for the money, period.
